Using data on 50 million home sales from the last U.S. housing cycle, we document that much of variation in volume came rise and fall speculation. Cities with larger speculative booms have price booms, sharper increases unsold listings as market turns, more severe busts. We present a model which predictable endogenously attract short-term buyers than long-term buyers. Short-term amplify by sell...

Abstract We develop a model of rational bubbles based on leverage and the assumption an imprecisely known maximum market size. In bubble, traders push asset price above its fundamental value in dynamic way, driven by expectations about future developments. At previously unknown date, bubble will endogenously burst. Households optimally decide whether to lend with limited liability. Bubbles incr...

Our CoNLL-2010 speculative sentence detector disambiguates putative keywords based on the following considerations: a speculative keyword may be composed of one or more word tokens; a speculative sentence may have one or more speculative keywords; and if a sentence contains at least one real speculative keyword, it is deemed speculative. A tree kernel classifier is used to assess whether a pote...

The first paper for this lecture [1] categorizes various options for supporting speculative multithreading in hardware, while the second [2] describes a way to implement it in software without specific architectural support. The class discussion covered the requirements and tradeoffs of software, hardware, and hybrid support for speculative multithreading. Thread-level speculation (TLS) is a wa...

Abstract This response briefly argues that post-phenomenology has always cut across the transcendental-empirical divide and is able to cultivate a deep respect for technologies in their otherness, without denying relation humanity. It does this by revisiting Don Ihde’s genetic phenomenological variations tracing its Gilbert Simondon’s ontogenesis. Having set up historical nature of objects, sec...
